PROPOSAL TITLE

This should be short, sharp, and describe what your research is about

it may it may also be a ‘working title’ that you will revise as your project develops.

Represents what you actually plan to do

Sometimes useful to use catchy phrases or direct statement to make your title more interesting

Be creative but most important, be precise and accurate

POSSIBLE TITLESTitle :

1. Fort Hood landfill leachate treatment

2. Environmental studies at the Merbok estuarine

area.

All titles are too general, we need to narrow down

the topic.

How?:

1. Take each keyword and ask yourself what

POSSIBLE TITLES (cont..)Propose title 1:

Use of a pilot-scale microbial mat system to treat leachate from the Fort Hood landfill

Application of microbial mat system to treat leachate from the Fort Hood landfill

Propose title 2:

Use of mathematical modelling for ecosystem prediction and assessment on the fluctuation of O2, nitrite, nitrate and pH at the Merbok estuarine area.

Application of bio-modelling on monthly fluctuation of crucial water parameters at the Merbok estuarine area.

PROPOSAL OBJECTIVES

These are statements qualifying what you wish to achieve in the project in relation to your problem statement.

Can use specific phrases such as ‘to measure’, `to compare’, ‘to assay’, ‘to isolate’, ‘to determine’ etc.

Very closely related to the actual experiments you are planning to do.

PROPOSAL OBJECTIVES: EXAMPLE (Cont..)

Hypothesis 1: Use of a pilot-scale microbial mat

system to treat leachate from the Fort Hood landfill.

Proposal Objectives:

to determine efficiency of pilot-scale leachate

microbial mat system treatment system for the metal

concentrations in the Fort Hood landfill leachate

to compare pilot-scale microbial mat system with

existing leachate treatment technology in the Fort

Hood landfill leachate to meet regulatory

requirements.


Objective 1: to determine efficiency of leachate

microbial mat system treatment system for the metal

concentrations in the Fort Hood landfill leachate

WHAT- determine pilot-scale leachate microbial mat

system treatment system

TARGET- efficiency pilot-scale leachate microbial mat

system treatment system

HOW- metal concentrations in the Fort Hood landfill

leachate

PROPOSAL OBJECTIVES:

EXAMPLE (Cont..) Hypothesis 2:Properties Of Compressed Banana Fiber

Composite From Agriculture Waste Using Cold-setting Adhesives


To determine the properties of compressed banana

fiber composite based on the banana stem portion

using cold-setting adhesive.

To compare the properties of compressed banana

fiber composite based on the banana stem portion

using cold-setting adhesive


Objective 1: To compare the properties of

compressed banana fiber composite based on the

banana stem portion using cold-setting adhesive

WHAT- compare

TARGET- compare the properties compressed

banana fiber composite

HOW- properties of compressed banana fiber

composite based on the banana stem portion using

cold-setting adhesive


Hypothesis 3: Treatment of Industrial Wastewater at

Gebeng Area Using Water Hyacinth, Water Lettuce and

Giant Salvinia.


To identify the performance of effectiveness of Water

Hyacinth (Eichornla Crassipes sp.), Water Lettuce (PistiaStratiotes sp.) and Giant Salvinia (Salvinia Molesta sp.)

as the plants in phytoremediation technology.

To determine the potential of heavy metals removal in

root zone via Water Hyacinth (Eichornfa Crassipes sp.),

Water Lettuce (Pisria Sfratiotes sp.) and Giant Salvinia

(Salvinia Molesta sp.).


Objective 1: To identify the performance of

effectiveness of Water Hyacinth (Eichornla Crassipes

sp.), Water Lettuce (Pistia Stratiotes sp.) and Giant

Salvinia (Salvinia Molesta sp.) performance

WHAT- identify

TARGET- performance of effectiveness of Water

Hyacinth (Eichornla Crassipes sp.), Water Lettuce

(Pistia Stratiotes sp.) and Giant Salvinia (Salvinia

Molesta sp.)

HOW- performance Giant Salvinia (Salvinia Molesta

sp.) performance
